Author

Abstract

Beamer (https://bitbucket.org/rivanvx/beamer/wiki/Home) is a LaTeX class that allows you to create presentations. Beamer contains several full-featured (but a bit ugly) themes, so I wrote this spiffy theme (but with some missing features) called Roma.

The color scheme is taken from the official Sapienza brand guidelines.
